Читать книгу How Fire Runs - Charles Dodd White - Страница 7

The mentality that destroys a watershed and then panics at the threat of flood is the same mentality that gives institutionalized insult to black people and then panics at the prospect of race riots.

—Wendell Berry, “Think Little”

I will read ashes for you, if you ask me.

I will look in the fire and tell you from the gray lashes

And out of the red and black tongues and stripes,

I will tell how fire comes

And how fire runs far as the sea.

—Carl Sandburg, “Fire Pages”
